Is it possible to build a stanalone program with supporting files embedded in the program?

Hi,
    I have picture files need to be used by a LabVIEW program. When building a standalone program these picture fies can be includded in a support directory. I wonder is it possible for these files to be part of the labview standalone program so I only need to distribue one program instead of a program with support directories? Thanks!
   Regards,
   Tom

Technically the answer is no, BUT depending on the size of the image, it might be possible to fudge it.
If the file isn't huge, read the file in and store is as a binary array in a constant that is on the block diagram of a VI that can be loaded dynamically.
Now, when your program launches, have it first check to see if the image file exists. If it does not, the program loads the dynamic file, and writes the contents of the constant to a file with the correct name and extension.

I have a PC running Windows XP (yes an antique) with CS3 Photoshop and InDesign and lightroom 2 (yes all antiques). I have acquired a PC running Windows 7 with no programs. I also have a MacBook pro with full CS5 suite. The programs were already loaded with I got it as a gift. Question 1. If I find serial numbers used to download programs to the old PC, can those CS3 programs be put on the newer PC. Question 2. I really want to put CS5 suite on PC machines. Is that possible? Especially since my MacBook is showing some hard drive problems.

You should be able to get the CS3 programs installed and running on the new pc since CS3 is spec-ed for Windows 7 Service Pack 1. Downloading the programs does not require a serial number. You can find them here: Download CS3 products but you will need the serial number to activate the programs. You might be able to find that thru your Adobe account online.
You will not be able to install the CS5 Mac version on a PC and you won't be able to trade it to a PC version either due to it being an older version. Trades are allowed only for the latest version (CS6)

Hi,
Have you try to un-select the Ignore other applications that use Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE) setting?
Click the Microsoft Office Button, and then click Excel Options.
Click Advanced, and then click to clear the Ignore other applications that use Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE)
check box in the General area.
Click OK.
If the problem cannot resolve, the Run as administrator may selected.
Go to Office default install location: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12.
Right-click EXCEL.EXE > Properties >
Compatibility tab.
Under Privilege Level, uncheck Run this program as an administrator
check box.
Best regards.

In Snow Leopard, there was a quick look feature that allowed you to look at files without opening the program. It doesn't show up in Lion on my iMac. Any ideas? Thanks

While in Finder, select the file (click on its icon once) then press the Spacebar.

Many Thanks, Kurt.
I knew I'd seen the solution you've provided somewhere - either in MacWorld or MacFormat - but couldn't remember the Gatekeeper bit!
I shall save it somewhere VERY safe now in case this happens again …
You have made an old man very happy and saved me from worrying that senile decay had suddenly set in. (I was 70 last week so you might understand the situation from that.)

How to call a dialog program with return value in another dialog program

Dear All,
How can I call a dialog program with return value from another dialog program?
Regards,
Alok.

Hi Alok,
You can you SET/GET parameters to do this.
This is some information about this.
To fill the input fields of a called transaction with data from the calling program, you can use the SPA/GPA technique. SPA/GPA parameters are values that the system stores in the global, user-specific SAP memory. SAP memory allows you to pass values between programs. A user can access the values stored in the SAP memory during one terminal session for all parallel sessions. Each SPA/GPA parameter is identified by a 20-character code. You can maintain them in the Repository Browser in the ABAP Workbench. The values in SPA/GPA parameters are user-specific.
ABAP programs can access the parameters using the SET PARAMETER and GET PARAMETERstatements.
To fill one, use:
SET PARAMETER ID pid FIELD f.
This statement saves the contents of field f under the ID pid in the SAP memory. The ID pid can be up to 20 characters long. If there was already a value stored under pid, this statement overwrites it. If you double-click pid in the ABAP Editor, parameters that do not exist can be created as a Repository object.
To read an SPA/GPA parameter, use:
GET PARAMETER ID pid FIELD f.
This statement places the value stored under the pid ID into the variable f. If the system does not find any value for pid in the SAP memory, sy-subrc is set to 4. Otherwise, it sets the value to 0.

Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen!
My question concerns the impossibility to open RAW-files directly from the program Adobe Bridge. At the moment when you open a RAW-file from Adobe Bridge by double-clicking, RAW-file is opened only in Photoshop. In the settings Adobe Bridge - in "open RAW-files by double-clicking in Adobe Camera Raw» box is checked. When you try any changes in the settings Adobe Bridge system displays a message:
Bridge's parent application is not active. Bridge requires that a qualifying product has been launched at least once to enable this feature.
The entire line of Adobe products on my computer updated to the latest updates. Previously, a family of products Adobe Photoshop on your computer is not set. Computer - PC, Windows 7 Enterprises.

In Bridge I cannot find Lightroom as a program to open files. All the other programs like photoshop etc are indicated?

In Bridge I cannot find Lightroom as a program to open files. All the other programs like photoshop etc are indicated?

You would go into Preferences > File Type Associations and from the dropdown menu and choose "Browse" to get to Lightroom.
So yes you can set files that Lightroom supports to open from Bridge into Lightroom.
But I don't think you'd want to.
Lightroom is a standalone product for a Photography workflow. Bridge is a manager for Creative suite products like Photoshop, Illustrator, Indesign. Basically web and print design workflows.
Bridge is not a manager for Lr because Lr has it's own catalog system.
Lightroom is not a Creative Suite product.
Bridge does use Adobe Camera Raw to make adjustments, but move those adjusted files into Lr, you have to make a decision whose settings stay.
This video should explain the difference.

Is there a way to use a namespace, such as "Library", and have a program with a different namespace include the Library namespace?

For many years, I have maintained a library of often used functions for C++. This has become more challenging with the required namespace for C#.

You could create a class X in a namspace Y in a C# class library project. You can then add a reference to this class library project/assembly from every application in which you intend to use the class X in namespace Y.
You don't add references to namespace, you add references to assemblies in .NET. You can then use a class in namespace Y of any referenced assembly by adding a using directive at the top of the code file in which you reference the class:
using Y;

Opening file to automatically open and run program with input file

My program has the ability to save and open a text file with a custom extension. How do I make the system in which the program is being installed to recognize this file to open the program, AND how to I gather the input file in my program and load it.
Thanks

Ok I have found on a different thread how to setup/register the file path association in the classes root. What I don't understand is how my program will know what the input file is. For example, the reg setting is C:/.../MyProgram.exe %1
When my program loads, is the %1 in the argc/argv part of the main thread? And if so, how do I debug/test this?
Thanks

Free trials are not available through the Mac App Store.

Is it possible to build a stanalone program with supporting files embedded in the program?
